My own 2 cents on this is not that the value of the time becomes over estimated but that people fail to extract the value of the time they "saved" by paying to have a service provided. I pay somebody to mow my lawn every week, if I spend that time hacking on a side project or being with my family then I can honestly say my time is indeed valuable and was well spent; but if I spend that time just screwing around on HN or Reddit, then I would say I wasn't honest about the value of my time and accept the fact that I paid for a service just because I'm lazy.
